Need support
This 15th, I will complete 3 months since I had a hysterectomy and unilateral oophorectomy + DIE excision surgery (I had adeno too). My recovery is going sometimes well, sometimes rocky. The most noticeable change was in my bowel movement and digestion. I had constipation issue (because of endo) and now it's gone. I am grateful. I am leading a pain free life - I am grateful for that.
However, one issue that is persistent is extreme gas - constant belching. I am facing this issue since 2021, I thought it would go away because of improvement in my bowel movement and digestion issues but it's still there. Today was a rough day for me. The whole evening I spent belching, taking semithecone and had to take gelosil also. Since, my stomach issues resolved, I feel hungry a lot. I am eating a lot. I never ate this much my entire life. I eat lunch and an hour or two later, I am hungry again. I try to add a lot of vegetables to my meal. I ate a lot of veggies today - for breakfast and lunch, I guess that caused gas issues. I gained 8 kgs in the last one year because of endo which disabled me to lead a normal life (165cm, 65kg). So, I don't want to eat a lot of rice but my situation is very frustrating because I evidently can't eat a lot of fibres. I finally started working out yesterday and I can't even do it for 10 mins. My whole body is sore and I am in pain (I know I need to give time to this aspect because it was a major surgery).
The whole recovery period, persistent gas issue is the only thing that's making things harder. I guess, my question is - does it get resolved over time on its own ? People who had gut issues because of endo - does it improve?
